10 Facts

Because Stacie begged me to do this, and I said yes, but I'm not posting on FB. ;)

10 Facts About My Pregnancies

1. First pregnant at 18, delivered at 19. Very young and YES I would do it that way again. I was young enough to be oblivious to dumb dumb people who thought I needed their judgement.

2. Didn't know I was pregnant with Lulu til 5 months, yea it can happen!

3. Natalie thought her delivery needed to usurp my need for pancakes. Wrong! I ate the pancakes from the pancake breakfast on the 4th of July on the way to the hospital. Delivered her 15 minutes later. TYVM.

4. I had realllllllly bad morning sickness with all of the girls.

5. James gained more pregnancy weight than I did. :)

6. My mom died 10/20/06. I found out I was pregnant (again) on 2/12/07... my mom's first birthday after she died. And my due date was 10/20/07, the one year anniversary of mom's passing. I call Emi my angel baby for this reason. I feel like mom hand picked her and was there every step.

7. 2 epidural, 1 natural.

8. 1 post partum hemorrhage.

9. I LOVED being pregnant. And would love to have another baby, (so would Nick.) But I think my baby days are over.

10. If James had a boy, he wanted to name him Ticonderoga (like the pencil!) And call him Tike for short.

About Me

I have a weakness for piano solos and vocal harmonies, wild poppies and tulips, lots of chocolate and peanut butter, warm snugly hugs and little white twinkle lights. Conversations with no words, southern drawl, windy stormy evenings in front of the fireplace, candlelight, horseback and a ranch in Haiku. Sisters of the heart, and Taqueria with corona, good books and pedicures. My silly sweet girls, and my dear ol' dad. Not at peace yet without my mom, and my hubby too. Not a stranger to heartache or headaches or tandem crises. I have a soft spot for the Marine Corps and anything military. Pretty darn quiet and I like it that way. On a new journey, and keeping my head up. Love me some sunsets on fall days, a warm chai latte, and mostly my Jesus ♥
